Gosh, should have read the code more closely. We have a totally botched wm
setup on i830M - the watermark code for the 2nd pipe is just not there!

(-: Guess that explains something. Just disregard my earlier patch, simply superfluous. In the meantime, I recompiled the code and *decreased* the latency from 5000 to 3000, then getting a stable image, even the boot console is then stable (has never been before). Its still off by half a screen, but no longer flickering
left and right.

However, what I do not understand about the watermark computation is that a *lower* latency results in a *higher* number
of entries in the FIFO. Shouldn't this quite the reverse?
In specific, I do not understand the subtraction in intel_calculate_wm, line 1058.

Anyhow, I let you proceed with the patch and I'm ready and happy to test it.

Greetings,
